Hofbräu Bierhaus NYC

What a fun and different stop! Stopped in here for a pre-dinner drink & bite, and love the atmosphere. Live music on a Friday night, a full house, and a tasty mix of (all light, German style) beer. The pretzel & wurst combo wasn't a ton of food, but enough to make us a bit thirstier for more beer. Very friendly staff who found us a pair of seats even though we let them know that we were not sticking around for a full meal.

As others have mentioned, it’s a cozy place with decent drinks, food, live music (way too loud though) and staff. Thursday nights are packed, but no one is too bothered by that, since it’s typical for restaurants/bars in this area. What isn’t enjoyable is, ironically, one of the bar’s security guards, who was preoccupied with hitting on female patrons and even coming by their table to creepily stare at them. And here I thought he was supposed to help make us all, I don’t know, feel safe? Long story short, ladies beware, and management you should probably reevaluate your hiring decisions. Won’t be coming back or recommending this place to anyone in the future.

We enjoyed it. Came around 4pm and it was starting to get busy. Beer was good. Servers were attentive. My wife's dessert was good. Nice and cozy atmosphere thanks to the decor and benches. Much smaller than the beer hall in Munich but a nice stroll down memory lane.

Great spot for groups. My best friend and I both have had birthdays here over the years. You can reserve a picnic style table for group with a waitress service (no minimum to reserve) Menu is typical German style. Good beer selection. Live music on the weekends. Can get pretty loud, that's why I gave 4 stars.

Terrific authentic Bavarian beer haus in mid-Manhattan! The space is huge and found on the second floor of the building with a nice balcony overlooking Third Avenue. and is good for gathering with friends. Live music adds to the ambience. The beer and the food is very good. The staff is friendly and dress the part. It's worth a visit to grab a drink of good German beer.
